What customers say

A clean, well-kept park with generous, flat spots and a chill vibe. Staff are super friendly, facilities spotless. Great on-site shop/cafe. Perfect base for Forest of Dean/Wye Valley. Note: play area better for older kids, access road's a bit rough. Highly recommended!

Jake S.

Power optional grass site

Liked Good pitch size
Reliable electric
Very clean facilities
Easy access to water points
Washing up area clean and tidy
Fire fighting media located well and visible

Disliked Child play area is just one monkey bar set up. Not good for smaller children
Shop/reception opening times are very limited
One bloke was very strict with 18 inch BBQ (grass was very wet after a heavy hours downpour)

From the manager: Thanks so much for your lovely review. We are really pleased to read your comments and that you enjoyed your stay.
You’re quite right about the play area, it is a bit limited at the moment, but don’t worry, we’ve got new kit lined up to go in over the winter, so the little ones will have a lot more to enjoy next season. Thanks also for the feedback on the shop/reception hours – we’ll have a think about how to make those more helpful.

Sorry about the strict bloke… that would be my husband Andy - he really is quite nice but he does get very protective of the grass - we’ve had a fair few BBQ and firepit burns this year. We have been working on softening his approach. We promise to polish up his people skills before you come back or we will keep him out the back!! 😉

Thanks again for staying with us, and we hope to see you again soon.

Power optional concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Beautiful campsite with excellent pitches that are very spacious. Campsite is very clean and well maintained and there is an excellent little shop on site. The site has great dog walking straight from the site. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The site is also situated away from any major road so it has no traffic noise.

Disliked There is no noise control and we had two days off loud music and screaming kids from a massive group gathering. There are no private sinks in the toilets for brushing teeth.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review - we are very pleased you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you back.

I am sorry to hear that your stay was adversely affected by the noise from the family group gathering - they are returning guests and are usually very respectful of our noise policy (music off at 10pm and quiet time between 10pm and 8am). Please do call us on the mobile number given if you are affected by other people's behaviour when on site - we are happy to step in and resolve any issues.

We also appreciate your feedback about private sinks in the facilities – it’s helpful for us to know when considering future improvements. We hope we’ll have the chance to welcome you back again for a quieter and even more enjoyable stay!

Power optional grass site

Liked We stayed at Greenacres Campsite this weekend with my partner and our 3-year-old and had an amazing time. The site is lovely, really well kept, and has a welcoming, relaxed feel. It’s a great spot for families, safe, spacious and with everything you need close by. Our little one loved the open space to play, and we really enjoyed the peaceful setting. A brilliant place to get away and we’ll definitely be coming back!

From the manager: Thankyou for your review! We're glad to hear you plan on returning, and that you enjoyed our site lots! We hope to see you soon.

Local attractions

Outdoorsy types are well catered to around here, with canoeing and paddleboarding at Symonds Yat Rock, archery and clay pigeon shooting in St Briavels, and pony trekking at Bream. If you're into golfing, then you're also in luck: Coleford has two courses, both less than 10 minutes' drive away. Follow the walking trail through the ancient 14-acre forest of Puzzlewood – the location for the filming of Dr Who, Star Wars, Merlin and Atlantis – to see rock formations and twisted trees, or visit Clearwell Caves to learn about the forest's 4,500-year ore and ochre mining heritage, both within a couple of easy miles of the site. Heaps of historic spots are within easy reach of Greenacres Campsite too, including Tintern Abbey's ruins and the castles of Raglan, Goodrich and Chepstow. The Dean Heritage Centre is a short drive away in the valley of Soudley, and comes highly recommended by Greenacres staff.
